It’s a journey...

So it was an early start today.

The long awaited 2018 IWC Collectors Meeting gets underway in Schaffhausen -
and I'm one of the lucky ones to be invited.

Schiphol (Bill's of BBAMSGTG fame's favorite airport), is busy today - Zurich,
here I come!

The Privium lounge is thankfully quiet and peaceful..

... and then at the gate;

.... it happened !!

The Lady in Blue saw my watch... she swooned, she drooled, she called a
colleague across to see....

and before ore I knew it, they pulled me aside and said simply; "we must" !

S

Take-off and I'm sitting comfortably.

Lunch is served - and I had to think of the tough time MF had on his last
flight....the lunch here was just perfect!

But as I begin to really relax, there she was again that lady in Blue. She had
some advise for me...

Putting a fine (warmed to perfection) Camus cognac in my hand, she
suggested I see page 13 of the in-Flight magazine. It's the 13th of the month,
and she wants me to see page 13... hmm, this may just be a setup?

what do you think Fellows?

Mark,

I am insanely jealous I could not join the crew in SH. Have a great
Collector's Meeting and say hello for me.

What a great story.

Truly impressed with the Lady in Blue's knowledge of the in-flight magazine -
now that's what I call service.

Have a great trip and meet up

Have a wonderful time and keep us posted with plenty of stories and pictures!

Kind regards,

Clemens

What luck and great taste by the airline staff!
